Máquinas


contraportada

The goal when developing this novel was to describe our prodigious, magical, and strange reality through eyes unaccustomed, like ours, to seeing it so ordinary amidst the pillars of subsistence, social relations, and feelings. There weren’t many options, and the first-person perspective offered by a machine was chosen; although the machine is a human product and possesses something of its creator, something that can amount to much. Ridding the character of humanity became the main challenge of this work, which required an arduous and almost mystical process of introspection that began with the analysis of everyday affairs and ended with that of personal ones, at the very edge of the abyss of the human condition, from where the disturbing conclusion was glimpsed that, in some way, we too are Machines.
